Take-Two's troubles and why Xbox console sales don't matter | GI Microcast

You can now download or watch the latest episode of the GI Microcast, our weekly quick dive into the biggest stories of the past week.
This week, we discuss the reported troubles at Take-Two with claims that indie-focused label Private Division, Rollerdrome developer Roll7 and Kerbal Space Program 2 studio Intercept Games were all affected (and, in some cases, closed) by the planned 580 layoffs.
We also reflect on Microsoft's most recent financials, the decline in Xbox hardware sales, and why there is so much more to talk about with the platform holder than how many boxes it has sold. And Chris got caught up in the 'frames per second' debate, which gives us a good excuse to remind you of upcoming editorial event GI Sprint.

fans are in for a treat because publisher Take-Two has no plans on slowing down the franchise; in fact, players should expect to see even more Vault Hunters in the future. The long-running action RPG is widely regarded as one of Take-Two's biggest series, with developer Gearbox earning plenty of praise designing a shooter that's endless replayable, addictive, and oozing style. The studio has confirmed that it's already working hard on the upcoming fourth mainline game, but that doesn't mean the community can't also look forward to some exciting spin-offs.
